So I harvested all my big mushies today...I have two varietys in one tub. Im still waiting for the GTs to finish opening up. Pretty big fuckers.
My question is I have a bunch of little pins on the other side...should i pick them and wait for the next flush or am I just waiting for these to mature too? Thanx in advance.

You accidentally misted your mush with ISO instead of water ? that sucks
Also Why care if the mush is small for cloning ?
I took a clone of a rather small mush from some Ecuador that seemed super potent like you mentioned sir_sPINS_alot
I figured I would end up with a bunch of smaller mush as opposed to less bigger mush, which to me would be ideal for potency it seems, but maybe that theory was wrong. I figured it would have the same yield, give or take, regardless of if the fruits are big or small. Like I figure the sub can push out more of the smaller fruits than it can of the bigger fruits, equalizing the total yield regardless of mush size. Is that wrong?
Either way I definitely wanted a clone of those small mush that seemed super potent.
I have some chit and some random mystery cube that put out some real nice big mush I took some clones from, but I honestly just want tubs and tubs of those small Ecuador...

Are you asking if you should pick your pins?
If so, don't pick the pins. I just pick all the mature fruits and let the others continue to grow and pick as needed, unless I get a full flush, then I pick them all, and rehydrate for a second flush.

Yea Im wondering because those pins have been there since the 3rd of this month. Otheres have just recently matured but I wanted room for a full flush. Its acting like MS but this is really an old culture from a clone.

Sounds like aborts if they've been like that for over 2 weeks

Yes but they dont have black caps...?
I pulled all the big caps hoping the lack of them would maybe cause them to start uptaking water...
I guess we will just see. Ive never had a variety that grew like this. Surface conditions are shitty...im working on it. As soon as i started paying closer attention bigger mushies started to pop up. Still tho some just havent moved from that size.
Thanx for te replys fellas.

caps don't have to be black to be aborts.. they do get a certain look to them though, often will be pointy. You'll get used to identifying aborts easily

Yeah seems like you're describing aborts to me too.
Like basically the pins that were growing right before you picked your flush,
Then after the flush, they don't do anything except get ugly and get recolonized by the sub,
Meanwhile new and healthy pins pop up and become the next flush.
If they started to abort and stopped growing while others did grow, isn't that from like lack of water or maybe nutrients ? Is the sub pumping water to the more promising fruit instead of the small pins ?maybe idk wtf I'm talking about

those are aborts but on the plus side thats at least a few dried grams of aborts.

Having horrible results, please shed some light.
I started with 3 shoe boxes on 12 hour light 6500k a week ago

After a week this is what they look like nothing is growing one is green and the other has yellow spots.

The temperature and lighing are fine. Why are they not forming mushrooms?
I started another 10 shoe boxes about 10 day ago and this is how they turned out.

What seems to be my issue why they are getting so destroyed?

This is one of those three from a side angle.
How do you know when it is knotting?

well that one definitely has mold. the knots are the tiny white dots that weren't there a few days before.

In a few days I’ll be spawning 10qt of WBS into shoeboxes doing a 2qt spawn 1:1 ratio with straight coir. My question is, if I work a nine to five job can I stay on top of surface conditions enough to do without a mono or sgfc? It’s getting cold outside and HVAC will be running often and drying out the air. Thanks

I work a 9-5 sometimes longer and shoeboxes are my go to. I live in Texas where the weather changes like a girl changes clothes, its cold and dry in the morning but humid and hot like a jungle by 2:00 pm. I live in an old place with wacky HVAC and my tubs do fine. I mist in the morning before work, and mist the tubs that need it when I get home. Some tubs don’t need misting until after first flush. You can spawn it and forget about it for a week

What kind of substrate are you using ?
The one munch says had mold, and the one all colonized but has a big black uncolonized chunk looks like some kind of bacteria. If its manure, what kind, and how did you pasturize it?
